Uncertainty

The great thing about this life is that it is so uncertain. NOTHING is set in stone. Everyday we wake up with a second chance, a new opportunity. If you don't like who you are, or where you are then change it. Only you have the power to do so.
We all have goals, dreams, and things that we strive for. We should all do our best to reach our full potential, and be the best that we can be. It isn't easy, and you will have people who will try to tear you down. What they say, and the things they do shouldn't matter. Because this life is about you. It's about how you decide to live it, and the way that you treat people. People are what truely matter.

"When you are in the final days of your life, what will you want? Will you hug that college degree in the walnut frame? Will you ask to be carried to the garage so you can sit in your car? Will you find comfort in rereading your financial statement? Of course not. What will matter then will be people. If relationships will matter the most then, shouldn't they matter the most now?" -Max Lucado

So if you don't like the person you have become, or the job your at, or ANYTHING in your life... change it. Surround yourself with supportive people, and be a supportive person in return. Think about what really matters to you, and then go get it.

Need To Be Me

"Spend a little more time trying to make something of yourself and a little less time trying to impress people..." -The Breakfast Club

This is something im trying to work on, and for a while it has been tough. I can honestly say it has been a serious struggle. For the longest time I have felt so uncomfortable in my own skin. I'm sure that most people do. It's hard trying to fit in. You want people to like you, you want to have friends and in trying to do so you forget that the most important friend you can have is you. Loving yourself can be hard for a lot, and recently it is something I can't do at all. Joseph Smith said "For doubt and faith do not exist in the same person at the same time" I need to learn to stop doubting myself. I have realized that if I don't like something about me then I need to change it, and have faith that through God and hard work I can do so. 

I'm luckier then most. Through this hard time and all my grouchyness I have a family who loves me and tries to understand. I have a husband who is WAY more patient then most, and loves me regardless. He also does everything he can to make me laugh and tell's me I'm Beautiful everyday. I would be seriously lost without him. 
This may sound selfish, but for a while I am going to focus on me. Honestly I really don't mean it in a bad way. I just need to work on loving myself, and be anyone I want to be. I just need to become a better me.
